I'm not trying to splitt hairs or anything. But an Oct. 81 vin Is considered an 81 model year. My vin is 5180 (Oct 81.) The last81 model year VIN was 7199. Also 82 models came with no line hood and the DELOREAN emblem. Althought ,I have heard of a rare occasion where a car was pulled from the line for what ever reason and delayed the production delivery and being givin' a current model year title.
